Nonsense deleted, yours? Often you write that when your train ofthought went off its rails.

There can only be countably many disjoint intervals but only countablymany nested intervals, but there are uncountably many points, in ZFC,that naturally form intervals, that are disjoint, intersecting, ornested.

And that's quite fundamental and basic.

Sir, I heartily suggest you consider that there's more to mathematicsthan yet's standard, and that it may well affect the foundations.And, Goedel proves that.
